In Yuncheng, the city lord's mansion is located in the very center. The four major families are distributed in the four directions of southeast, northwest and northwest.
Judging from the current status of Miaodanfang, it is capable of ranking in the middle of 99% of the cities in Tingxiang Kingdom. But for such a huge organization, the location chosen is only slightly closer to the center of the city than a few major families. This is true in Yuncheng and in other places.
It is precisely because of this humility and indisputability that Miaodanfang is well taken care of by the city lords in various cities.
After about a quarter of an hour, Tang Yan finally arrived in front of Miaodanfang.
Miaodanfang occupies a large area, and the front hall is responsible for selling some low-grade elixirs and various medicinal materials.
When you walk into the store, there aren't many goods on the shelves.
"Sir, what do you need?" Seeing someone coming in, the shop assistant immediately greeted him with a smile.
Tang Yan opened the folding fan and asked with a smile, "Is there any elixir for increasing true energy?"
"In our Miaodan Shop, there are two main types of elixirs that increase Qi, the Foundation Building Pill and the Yuan Tidan Pill." The store clerk immediately introduced.
Tang Yan knew something about these two types of elixirs, and they were both first-class elixirs. Among them, the Foundation Establishment Pill is a first-grade low-level elixir, mainly used by Yuan-level warriors. The level of Tiyuan Dan is slightly higher, and it is suitable for warriors of Huang level and below.
Although both types of elixirs are more suitable for me, the purpose of my trip is not to buy medicines. Now that I am short of money, I can only buy half a bottle of Foundation Establishment Pill at most.
"Is there any second-grade elixir?" Tang Yan closed the folding fan, patted his chest and said, "I have a lot of money!"
The shop clerk's mouth twitched when he heard this, isn't this guy looking for a kill? However, second-grade elixirs are indeed not for sale on the surface. The store clerk looked embarrassed and said: "Sir, we don't have this."
Tang Yan's eyes widened, he smashed his fan on the counter, and shouted loudly: "What! Miaodanfang is such a big sign, but the Qi-increasing elixir sold to the outside world is only the first-grade and mid-level?"
This voice was shouted by Mr. Tang at the top of his lungs, and it instantly attracted everyone's attention. Fortunately, this Miaodanfang is not an ordinary place, so there are not many customers in the store.
"Sir, the second-grade elixir requires a second-grade alchemist to refine it. The output is not large. It is only supplied to major families and will not be sold randomly on the counter. Judging from your extraordinary appearance, you must be our son. You must follow the rules of our store. You should know." The store clerk explained patiently.
"Since the elixirs will eventually be sold, and I have plenty of money, why don't you just sell some to me?" Mr. Tang said carelessly.
The store clerk was a little anxious at the moment. Although Miaodanfang was powerful, he was not willing to cause disputes casually. Judging from the handsome appearance of this young man, he must be a child of a big family. He is just a medicine seller, and he does not dare to offend easily.
During this hesitation, the store clerk was speechless.
"My Miao Danfang has its own rules. Second-grade elixirs are rarely sold in retail. But since the young master is rich, this rule is also set by people. Then I will make an exception and sell you a bottle of Qi Gathering Pill, a second-grade elixir. , it just came out of the oven not long ago." came an old yet energetic voice.
Everyone turned to look and saw an old man in gray robes with gray eyebrows, bright eyes and a beard walking out of the house with his hands behind his back.
"Master Ge!" Seeing the visitor, all the staff at Miaodanfang bowed their heads and said hello.
Ge Ming, the great elder of Yuncheng Miaodanfang, a second-level alchemist, is above Wuxuan.
The Qi Gathering Pill is a second-level middle-grade elixir with extremely mild medicinal properties. Even if you are a first-level Yuan-level warrior, your meridians will not burst after taking this elixir. Therefore, this kind of elixir is also the first choice for major families to cultivate young and outstanding children.
However, refining this kind of elixir is relatively complicated, and even for a second-level mid-level alchemist, it has a high failure rate.
Frowning, Tang Yan smelled the burning smell in the air and focused on the old man.
Looking at the porcelain bottle in the old man's hand with some deep meaning, Tang Yan stepped forward and said with a smile: "Qi Gathering Pill? How much does it cost?"
"I won't go into details about the efficacy of the medicine. There are three elixirs in this bottle. If they are put at auction, they can be sold for up to one hundred thousand taels of silver. I won't deceive you. This elixir is only one hundred thousand taels of silver. Sell it to a little friend, what do you think of it?" Ge Ming said loudly, but looking at Tang Yan with a bit of disdain.
A second-generation ancestor who thinks he is rich dares to make noise in Miaodanfang?
Tang Yan cursed in his heart, this old bastard can sell for a hundred thousand at the auction, so why don't you sell me a hundred thousand? Tang Yan remained calm on the surface, but he laughed and said, "It's easy to talk about. I wonder if you can let me test the elixir?"
"Oh? Do you think the pill I gave you is a fake elixir?" A cold light flashed in Ge Ming's eyes.
Tang Yan hurriedly waved his hand and said: "Miaodanfang has been standing in the mainland for countless years and has an excellent reputation. Naturally, I will not put up a sign for a mere hundred thousand taels of silver. However, I have not seen the Qi Gathering Pill yet and want to appraise it first to avoid buying it." If you take the wrong medicine, it won’t be easy to explain when you go back.”
"If you want to take a look, then take a look. However, if you accidentally damage the elixir, you will have to pay compensation according to the price." Ge Ming handed over the porcelain bottle, the ridicule in his eyes became stronger, and there was even a wave of zhenqi on his body. A kid who doesn't have one dares to brazenly talk about identifying elixirs?
Tang Yan took the elixir with a smile, gently pulled out the cork, exposed a little gap, put it to the tip of his nose and sniffed gently, then put the cork back on.
"Is it verified?" Seeing Tang Yan being so casual, Ge Ming became more and more contemptuous.
"Okay." Tang Yan nodded.
When identifying elixirs, the first thing to look at is the shape of the elixir, with a rounded surface being preferred. Second, you should observe the color, and it is better to have a uniform color. The third is to feel the spiritual energy of the medicine. If the strength is not high, you will usually use some equipment. There are also some more complicated identification methods, but these are not important. This kid is completely stupid and doesn't know how to pretend to be knowledgeable.
Even the shop assistant on the side had a look of ridicule on his face.
As for Xiao Cui, she lowered her head in shame. Even though she had never taken the elixir, she had heard that identifying elixirs requires more than just smelling them. However, Xiaocui did not run away. After so many years of being embarrassed by going out with the young master through ups and downs, she has developed a certain immunity.
"I wonder if this Qi Gathering Pill is fake?" Ge Ming asked.
The eldest son of the Tang Dynasty groaned, tapped the palm of his hand with a fan, and said after a long while: "This elixir is indeed genuine, but the price still needs to be discussed."
"Oh? I wonder how much money you think is appropriate?" Ge Ming was already ready to sell medicine.
"Three thousand taels of silver, do you want to sell it?"
